blitzy

So i guess they just added the 'members only'. But the thing is they have a set of terms & conditions in the online reservation page (where you put all details & credit card information) and the 'members only' clause is not there. They just put it in the front page. So.. what do you think? Is it too risky to book it? We're going on November and the rate is $79. Unfortunately the travelzoo offer is not available on that month.

Checked the link for "retail vs name your own price" hotel list, i was wondering about that... thanks. Btw, do you know what time is "happy hour" at Brasa? Sounds yummy :) Thanks again

Thanks for the info blindman. The rate is fantastic, but at the bottom i saw this footnote "OFFER VALID FOR CLUB ALADDIN MEMBER LISTED ON THIS ACCOUNT. PLEASE PRESENT CLUB CARD UPON CHECK-IN." Is this offer valid for members only then?

Finally after tried bidding for a few days we got the Sheraton. I tried 4* from $100 using rebid zones going up $5 everytime (the tips on adding zones on different areas that don't have 4* is just awesome!! Thanks). Rates are really high on those dates. I even tried 3* up to $115 and couldn't get anything. Also, I'm worried on getting the mediterranean inn which is rated at 3* on priceline and it's only rated 2.5* on other websites. Do you know if anyone ever bid on 3* and actually getting the mediterranean inn? Anyway, with rates skyrocket high on those dates and price for sheraton over $230 on other websites, i'm happy with the result, eventhough it's a bit over our budget.

another bid through savingsbarn.com :)

Boutique San Francisco, 10/28/06 - 11/1/06

Galleria Park $73 (USE)

My first winning on priceline - through savingsbarn.com. This forum really helps a lot! I started at $70 hoping to get a 4*. Didn't get it so i included boutiques, raised it to $73. Got it, but i was hoping for the Harbor Court which has very good reviews. There's mix reviews on this hotel, as it is undergoing major renovation from June (?) - October. Hopefully it'll all be done when we get there & i hope we'll get one of the renovated room :)
